‘The Paul’s’: The singer shared photos from her LA home on Sunday as she celebrated her first Emmy win, with a personalised game with the label ‘The Paul’s’ spotted in the background
The game, which appears to be a set of dominoes or Rummikub tiles, had ‘The Paul’s’ clearly written on the side, leading one of the star’s 50.8million followers to ask ‘is you married?’ in the comments.
‘I can’t tell if I’m more excited by it or upset at the bad punctuation,’ quipped another.
The superstar and the multi-millionaire agent first met at a party a few years ago, and took their relationship public in the summer of 2021.
The musician was previously wed to charity entrepreneur Simon Konecki, the father of her nine-year-old son Angelo, marrying in 2018 and separating the same year.

In an interview last month with ELLE UK, Adele responded to rumours she was engaged, quipping she ‘might as well be married.’
‘I’ve never been in love like this,’ she gushed. ‘I’m obsessed with him. I definitely want more kids.
She coyly added: ‘Well! Well. Well, I’m not married’ when asked if the ring she’s been wearing recently is an engagement diamond.
‘I’m just in loooove! I’m happy as I’ll ever be. I might as well be married,’ later confessing of her huge ring: ‘I’m not engaged. I just love high-end jewellery, boy!’

In May Adele moved in with Rich, who manages the likes of NBA star LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Ben Simmons, among other athletes, after a year of dating as she shared a snap of them outside their new $58million Beverly Hills home.
During a past interview with Rolling Stone, Adele described her relationship with Rich as being the most ‘incredible, openhearted, and easiest’ one she’s ever been in.
While they have only been seeing each other since last summer, the pair actually met for the first time at a friend’s birthday party several years before.
They would later reconnect in June 2021, with Adele saying: ‘I didn’t really tell many of my friends at the beginning because I wanted to keep it to myself.

They put their love on display when they attended the NBA Finals as a couple in July, and again at LeBron James’ wife’s birthday party in August.
Adele went Instagram official with their romance in a post on September 19, which she captioned with a red heart emoji.
The singer rarely posts about Rich on social media but did use her Instagram account to hit back at rumours she cancelled her Las Vegas residency because she was having relationship problems.
Just weeks after she postponed her shows, the singer defiantly took to Instagram to address speculation over the status of her relationship as she jokingly told her fans her sports agent partner ‘sends his love’.

Adele and her ex Simon have maintained a close relationship, co-parenting Angelo, while Simon was seen hanging out with Rich during the star’s Hyde Park gigs this summer.
The pair, accompanied by Adele’s nine-year-old son Angelo, were spotted chatting together in the VIP area.
Proving the strength of their friendship Adele dedicated her BRIT Award winning album 30 to Simon and their son Angelo during the BRITs in February.
Adele emotionally told viewers her award was for her son and her ex-husband because the record is ‘really about them’, before crediting herself for ‘putting out something so personal’.
The star’s fourth album details her painful split from Simon, previously explaining that the album’s lead single Easy On Me was written for her son, who had questions for his parents after their split, like ‘why can’t you still live together?’.
